There is a story of President ‘Silent’ Calvin Coolidge who was known for saying as little as possible. At a White House dinner, he was seated next to a society woman that was known for her ability to talk and talk and talk some more. She looked at Silent Cal and said, “I bet my husband I could get you to say three words upon sitting down for dinner”. To which President Coolidge stated, “You lose”……..
